We asked manufacturers about products that are highly energy efficient, improve comfort, and are outfitted with technology ...

Designing a temporary heating system differs considerably from permanent installations. In early construction stages, you might face a tight roof with walls of sheet plastic, or nearly complete walls ...

Energy stored in thermochemical materials can effectively heat indoor spaces, particularly in humid regions, according to researchers. Energy stored in thermochemical materials can effectively heat ...

Aggressive decarbonization targets set by government agencies and some owners are requiring the industry to formulate strategies to reduce the embodied and operational carbon in the built environment.

New research shows that hybrid heat pumps combining an electric heat pump and a gas boiler represent a technically feasible and economically viable solution to partially decarbonize heat supply in ...

Scientists have analyzed the performances of two air-source heat pumps in two small office buildings in China during the heating season. They identified the instantaneous load of the building as a ...

Underestimating thermal bridging can greatly undermine a building’s performance contributing to heating load variances of up to 30% and cooling load variances of up to 200%, says the MMM Group. That ...

Load-based testing for heat pumps is an emerging experimental methodology designed to capture realistic, dynamic equipment performance by allowing the system to operate under its native ...

Bitcoin mining has long been criticized for its tremendous electricity consumption, with much of the energy ultimately ...
